The end of the year means a lot of things: colder weather, time off school, seasonal coffee cups. More recently, it’s meant making ALL THE HOLIDAY-BASED BENTO BOXES, and these tiny, edible works of art are too good to pass up. Since you can’t really find them hanging in a gallery anywhere, we’ve decided to collect a few of our favorites here. Foodbeast presents the Holiday BentoBox  Countdown.

10. Rudolph, the PB&J reindeer. He’s got a very berry nose. (Get it?)

9. Christmas Ornaments. Way better than that storage box you have.

8. Frosty, the Bagelman.

 7. Starry Night. Oooh, pretty colors.

6. The Hanukkah Box. Like the song, but with more food.

5. Diwali Bento. The lunchbox of light.

4. Pilgrim Bento. The first Thanksgiving, 21st century style.

3. Dradle, Dradle, Dradle, we made you out of cheese.

2. Cornucopia: Thanksgiving-in-a-box.

1. Christmas Tree, how lovely is your broccoli.

Bonus! Happy New Year!

Aziza Sullivan has always enjoyed three things in excess: food, writing, and sleeping. While the first two are happily combined, the third tends to get in the way, since it turns out the average reader is uninterested in sleep blogs. She also enjoys coffee, probably too much, if there is such a thing.
